Name: Ginny G Central Iowa (Zone 5a) Plant Addict!!
We moved to the country with 12 acres and a semi-long lane. DH felt it necessary to purchase a small tractor with an air conditioned cab, bucket on front for snow and also a mower for yard. First couple years not enough snow to scoop. Then we got snow but he was tired and told me to "drive over" it! I got stuck!! When he did move the snow the scoop took the snow AND gravel off! Tractor too heavy and left ruts in yard so sold the mower and got a blade for back of tractor for snow. Went back to a riding mower for yard. We do use the tractor to move dirt and rock and mulch. Blade works some better for snow. Like I always say, boys and their toys!!
